Lucky Paul's Christine build

A few know from Facebook, but I picked up a 1957 Plymouth 2 door hardtop for 950.00 in Del Rio Texas, (border of Mexico)

Now that I have the TRUE Christine car (2 door hardtop) I'm going to finally be able to build a clone. I"m going to be doing a Frame off build with this car, 440 engine, updated rear axle, disk brakes, the whole deal.

This will take forever, but once ALICE is running driving, the fun begins on Christine!

That skeleton finding from the car is pretty spooky. I always knew Christine was a killer! lol. Any idea what kind of critter it was? That rust cancer definitely doesn't look good! I've never seen a rust cancer hole on the fin before, always thought the moisture would just drain off of the fin and not collect it to make it rusty... I wish you the best of luck with that.

Haha. I found the cat rat skeleton on the front seat... I'm just glad I had a mask on when I was clean all the damn stuff out of the car!

The fin rust hole was from a towel sitting on it and holding water . I'm going to use my 1958 2 door post Plaza as a donor for most of the parts for this car. The entire front end, the dash, the thin patch panel, etc. I'm really only missing a pair of front bumper wings to make this complete... I think LOL

Yes that is all you need...a pair of front wings. :) You are a very brave man and I'm guessing very talented.

I read on FB "Plymouth parts group" that you got one for $950! Can't beat the price considering those rear bumper wings, roof trim and rarer still "aluminium piece" under the trunk is worth well over $950!!! The car body actually isn't all that bad considering...

I bet the old girl is loving being indoors now.

HaHaHa in the 5th photo at first quick glance looking beside the Plymouth, I thought the boat was a DeLorean!
